So, this is my first mountain bike race of the year. Well, ever, really. I had high hopes for this day but knew my fitness was severely lacking. Kept telling myself just go out and ride your ride, if it turns out to be a race for last place then it’s still a good day....
I was ready, I could have trained more and eaten less but I think that for every race I do. But I knew this course was a good one for me, not too much climbing, some power, lots of turns and some fun downhills. I felt ready and I felt good. But you have to DO the race...
